Matjangka has depicted the infinite and breathtakingly beautiful night sky that is omnipresent over the desert country of the *APY lands. Her detailed dotting creates an expansive field of stars on a clear night.
A dynamic and versatile artist, painting is Matjangka’s main art form. She is also well-known as a traditional dancer and excelled in the medium of batik. Examples of her work can be found in the collections of the National Gallery of Victoria, South Australian Museum and Flinders University of South Australia.
